    							Overview
    ERROR LED: glows red temporarily when power is first connected. Will glow red steadily to indicate an I/O
    error occurred on the mSATA drive.
    Activity  LED:  glows  green  to  indicate  an  mSATA device  in  inserted  and  powered  up,  blinks  to  indicate
    activity. Both Drive Activity LEDs will blink rapidly during a RAID 1 rebuild function.
    HOST LED: glows green to indicate connection to SATA controller, blinks to indicate activity.Drive InstallationInsert one or two mSATA media devices into the Drive connectors, at an angle, then press downward gently
    until the drive snaps in place under the retaining clip.Port Multiplier CompatibilityThe Port  Multiplier built into this device will only work with a Port Multiplier aware SATA host adapter when
    configured  as  JBOD  (individual  drives).  Identify  your  host  controller  and  check  with  its  hardware
    manufacturer  if  you  are  unsure.  Addonics  offers  several  Port  Multiplier  aware  host  adapters.  This
    requirement does not apply to RAID Modes.Hot SwappingThis device supports hot swapping (inserting or removing drives while the drives are running and connected
    to a computer). The eSATA controller on the computer must also support hot swapping - be sure to confirm
    this  before  attempting  to  insert  or  remove  drives  while  the  system  is  running.  Also  be  sure  to  practice  the
    appropriate  safe  removal  procedure  before  proceeding.  Failure  to  practice  safe  removal  procedures  will
    result in loss or corruption of data.

    Setting Up the AdapterThe Dual mSATA – SATA Adapter is  factory set for JBOD  Mode. Each drive will be treated as an individual
    target  by  the  SATA controller,  which  is  required  to  support  Port  Multipliers.  RAID  0,  RAID  1,  and  LARGE
    Modes do not require port multiplier support.
    The  RAID  Mode  Jumper  Block  determines  the  mode  when  the  adapter  is  powered  up  while  the  SET
    Jumpers shunt is connected between SET and GND. To set the RAID Mode, arrange the two shunts on the
    RAID  Mode  Jumper  Block according  to  the  table  below,  make  sure the  SET Jumpers  shunt  is  connecting
    SET  and  GND,  then  power  up  the  adapter  one  time  with  a  connection  to  a  SATA  controller.  Once  the
    operating system shows the storage, the RAID Mode is configured.
    After  the RAID Mode  has been set  up correctly, the  SET Jumper  may be  disabled by moving  the shunt  to
    connect between SET and NC to prevent unintended configuration later.
    NOTE: An existing RAID can only be changed to JBOD Mode. To change the type of RAID, you must first
    delete the RAID by powering up the adapter with the jumpers set to JBOD Mode one time, then disconnect
    power and set the desired RAID Mode afterward.
